First screen displaying problem and graphics card problem

Anonymous — Tue, 12 Feb 2019 12:06:55 GMT

When I open AutoCad, the first screen doesn't display correctly like this photo.

AutCad uses intel graphics card instead of nvidia graphics card, is that a problem ?

Hi,

>> AutCad uses intel graphics card instead of nvidia graphics

>> card, is that a problem ?

Yes, you should get the nVidia card working with AutoCAD.

Also make sure you have the latest update for AutoCAD installed.

In case you have activated a text scaling (DPI scaling) for your monitors then you should know that also this can be the source of the issue as this is supported with AutoCAD 2017.1 and higher, but not with your AutoCAD 2016. You might set the scaling back to 100% and see if AutoCAD's start window looks then better.

First off, see this, then go here to check and see if your display adapter is supported, and if so, if you have the recommended driver. On top of that, this looks like the old "too high resolution" problem that affected 2016 and earlier. @Anonymous

Thanks a lot. You helped me with the scaling problem. I Disable DPI scaling and the problem was solved. my intel hd graphics 620 isn't there in the list and also the nvidia geforce 940mx isn't there but actually the program is working properly and I don't have problem with it.

Thanks a lot. the scaling problem was solved. It is working on the intel card, the program is working properly so, I don't have problem with it.
